A Tawny Owl (Strix aluco) in it’s hideout during the day.

 

The Tawny Owl has only inhabited Finland for a bit over a 100 years. The first nest was found at the end of the 19th century. And only recently, during the 1960s and 1970s, the population increased. However, the cold winters of the 1980s took the population significantly down again. Global warming may have a positive impact on the population of this bird in Finland. How controversial.
